    Re-greasing the Ultra motor...is it time?

    Glad to hear you finally got your Hydra. 👍 Last year, when I re-greased my UC Pro's motor, I also re-greased my Hydra's motor. While my UC Pro's motor has almost no grease my Hydra's motor had lots of grease (red coloured). Does your Hydra have a regular derailleur setup? Too bad about WW's...

    Re-greasing the Ultra motor...is it time?

    I wish Pushkar had designed the UC Pro frame with a half an inch more motor clearance. It would have made a world of difference when installing the motor. Side note: I recently came across a Chinese company (Waltly) that makes a custom titanium frame that is very similar to the WW's UC Pro frame.

    Re-greasing the Ultra motor...is it time?

    It looks like you've got more room between the top of the motor and the frame, compared to my UC Pro. 👍

    Winter Sucks

    Two of the best things I bought in 2023 are an indoor smart trainer and a monthly subscription to Fuzgaz. Lately, most of my rides are on my indoor trainer, but occasionally I do get to ride outside. I could ride outdoors a lot more, but it's so easy to hop on my trainer (tee shirt and shorts)...

    Looking for a lightweight city/commuter bike

    If you're not 'bike savvy' I'd recommend you purchase your bike from a local bike shop. E-bikes need more maintenance and having a bike shop close by that can work on your bike is a huge plus. I'd also recommend a mid drive power train with a torque sensor. Suspension forks are nice, but they...

    Can the Fuzua battery be charged while still in the frame and can the power be turned on/off without taking the battery out?

    Scott Solace 20 eRide after 3 Months

    A couple of years ago I took a $10,000 carbon Creo for a test ride. While riding along I went to increase the power level just before coming to a steep hill. The road was heavily shaded with trees, so I didn't see the big pothole in front of me as I took my hand off of the handlebar to reach...

    Scott Solace 20 eRide after 3 Months

    For safety reasons this is something that Scott should have included with every road e-bike they sell.

    New Carbon Fiber Bike from Ride1up

    Only two sizes available (50 & 56cm). Personally, I'd rather have a quality aluminum frame than a cheap carbon frame.
